Association between elevated serum bilirubin levels with preserved lung function under conditions of exposure to air pollution

Association between elevated serum bilirubin levels with preserved lung function under conditions of exposure to air pollution

Abstract Background High serum bilirubin levels have been shown to be associated with an improved pulmonary function test results. Their potential ability to similarly benefit pulmonary function in an environment of polluted air has not been tested. We retrospectively analyzed data of 15,605 apparen...
